CRAWLING EXCHANGE BANK.

The Grayling Exchange Bank of
John Staley, Jr., has been established
one year, and his business success is
such that the Bank is sure to remain
a permanent institution of the place.
In fact, though started as an expert
ment, the first three months proved its
necessity, SO that Mr. Staley purchas-
ed a building and fitted it up for bank
ing purposes. With ample capital and
perfect arrangement for foreign and do
nestle exchange all business can now
be transacted here with equal facility
to the larger cities. The aggregate
business for the year will exceed $780,
10000.

CRAVINGS GROWTH.

The almost phenomenal growth OF
our beautiful village for the past year
has been done so quietly that the out.
side world knows but little of it, end
our own citizens hardly appreciate the
Importance of the position which we
have right to assume. 1t is the prov
vince of the AvALANcHE to keep
these matters before the public and
it has noted them from week to week,
but with this, the last number of the
year, will give a general resume of the
business and improvements made dur
ing 1887.

store on the corner of Michigan Ave
nue. and Cedar street and put Ia a
stock of dry goods and groceries in
voicing about 100000 in January
1881. In 1888 lie added stock of
Drugs, Medicine, Paints, Oils and in or
der to accommodate his business BE

SAILING. HANSON 4 co.

The most important industry of the
place, because the largest, is the es-
tablishment of Sailing, Hanson & Co.,
n firm composed of e. N. Sailing, of
Manistee, and r. Hanson and N.
Nicholson, resident partners. Their
plant at this place consists of say
mill, of latest style with a capacity of
IS. 900 feet per day; first class plan
ing mill, with large combined Wood
planer, Fay planer and the usual
accompaniment of siding saws, rip
saws, moulding machinery, ETC., and
in connection have erected dry kiln
of the j r. Rundell patent, at cost
of 50, 10000, which il certain guaran-
tee of perfectly dry stock. They also
run single mill with daily capaci-
ty of 40 M, and Nov. LIST started lath
mill which has already cut 500, 900 feet
of lath. The aggregate for the year is
over Is, 000 900 feet of lumber; 5.00O,-
600 shingles and 500, 900 lath. They
operate five camps, employing an aver
age of 200 men and cut %, 600, 900 feet
Of logs.
This firm began operations here In
1881 by the purchase of small mill
which had been erected by j. G. Good
ale and have added to and extended
their business annually ever since, and
as aside from their trade in logs and
lumber they conduct the largest gen
eral mercantile business between the
Saginaw Valley and the Straits. Their
first store was 28xS0 feet and in 1884
they added on the east 20xS0 feet and
in the last year have extended the
whole 40 feet to the rear. Making
their present salesroom and Office a
double store, 2Sx120 and 20x120 feet
respectively. In addition to accomo-
date their stock, they have storerooms
on railroad as follows: One building
301x162 feet, one 22xS6I feet and one
22x72 feet and another in the rear of
store about 32x40 besides large sheds
to cover wagons, sleighs and agricultu
raj implements. Their average in
voice Of their mercantile stock is
about %. 10000 dollars, and sales for
1887 will aggregate over 161, 900, 90 dol
lars. Nine clerks are employed and
the entire business is as perfectly sys-
tenatized as that of any house in the
state.
For the protection Of their own prop
erty they have put in the Holly sys-
TEN of water works at a cost of s., 000,-
90 and an electric light plant at cost
of So, 100000. With their public spirit,
they did not stop with just what was
required for themselves, but added
sufficient power, so that both are ex-
tended to other parts of the village.
They have. added s., 600, 90 to their
buildings during 1887, and another
100000 dollars to their machinery,
and expect to add about the same
amount for the ensuing year.
That their residence here is perma-
Dent, is established by the fact that
Mr.. Nicholson has now the most ex-
pensive residence in the place and the
plans are perfected and site selected
for the residence of Mr.. Hanson,
which will be built in the early spring,
either of which contain too much
money to be held as ordinary property
for sale,
